I thought we could discuss international versions of this format in this topic :)

In Germany, the fourth season of "Deutschland sucht den SuperStar" (short title: "DSDS") started in January. The second part of the "Recall" will be broadcasted tomorrow. Like in the previous seasons, it's already pretty obvious who will end up in the Top10 because they only showcase certain people and the rest of the contestants is barely shown at all. Although most people know it's a fake and the winners of the previous three seasons have disappeared from the public interest, it's still one of the most-watched shows here with 8 to 10 million viewers each week.

Here are the highlights of the first part of the "Recall":

Christian, Martin & Andreas "Sorry Seems To Be The Hardest Word" (Elton John)

Lisa, Rebecca & Vanessa "Because Of You" (Kelly Clarkson)

Lauren & Mark "You Are So Beautiful" (Joe Cocker)

I guess only two or three really good contestants will end up in the live shows and the rest will be pure crap. :angry:

It surely was a nice idea, but it came across as very staged. I can't even remember if it was broadcasted live or not?

Here are the last 20 contestants of German Idol 4. Two guys will be eliminated in tonight's first live show.
